Question

Mark earns $42,500 per year for his salary at a car dealership. he earns an additional $110 for each car he sells. if mark made $56,030 last year how many cars c, did he sell?

Answer 1

Answer: Mark sold 123 cars last year.

Explanation:

First, subtract his salary from how much he made in a year:

56030 - 42500 = 13530

Then, divide 13530 by 110 to get 123.

That means he sold 123 cars last year.

Algebraic explanation:

42500 + 110c = 56030

Subtract 42500 from both sides.

110c = 13530

Divide both sides by 110.

c = 123
